[GP/UI] Paratroop Reinforcements

[RundyMC]

Concise description:
You can reinforce one territory with the troops from another, regardless of if they are connected or not.

Specifics/Details:
This would be an alternative to the current Reinforcement options of Unlimited, Adjacent & Chained.

It would be similar to Adjacent and Chained in that you can only make the one reinforcement but you can Paratroop them to anywhere on the map.


How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
This will add a new element to the strategy of troop placement & movement. It would be particularly useful on maps that have an auto-deploy.

NO thats fucking ridiculas!

[spiesr]

Not another option.

[sfhbballnut]

then everybody would consolidate all of there trroops on the firts turn, it'd be pointless

[RundyMC]

it'd be interesting.

As a further alternative to the existing fortifications - an airlift would allow a player to fortify from anywhere to anywhere.

Only one fortification per turn would be allowable.

Why is it needed? Well - for a bit of variety.

Also right now in Europe I have a stack of armies stuck in Portugal that really need to get to Moscow in a hurry!

to take it a step further, an airlift should require you to lose 10% of your troops on an airlift (min of 1 troop). Afterall, your trying to high tail it out of dodge (or into dodge).

reinforcement OPTION where any of your territs can fort any other territ regardless if they are connected by a path of your territories

Specifics:
its like unlimited but they dont have to be connected

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

imagine the new level of strategy involved with this. your drops on things like circus maximus mean next to nothing now. one way borders add the strategy of only one way attacking. think about world 2.1 ... nuff said. also team games are completely diff because you can move your troops to your buddies assault front, not just their border.
please note its only an option if done.

Sounds Fun.

Interesting... but you could set like one of that tipe of reinforcement per turn... like unlimited with that option, max 1 time of that specific tipe or something. Equal as chained and adjacent (of course, cause they only allow 1 reinforcement at all, jaja)

[sailorseal]

I love this idea! Whole new strategy! I would play it all the time

I think I would enjoy this, but only if it could also be "adjacent" or "chained". The idea of this alongside of "unlimited" just doesn't sound enjoyable to me in any way.

I would definitely like this as an optional setting.

• Adjacent
• Chained
• Unlimited
• Flying <-----

[Timminz]

would flying mean unlimited as well, or would you like to see, flying-single, and flying-unlimited as multiple options?

[a.sub]

i think both options are valid, and we could do this in a double selection process
reinforcements
Adjacent, Chained, Flying
Amount
Single, Infinite (doesnt apply to adjacent), ****

**** we could actuially use this format to have a setting where you can fortify 8 adjacents, or 12 chained, etc.
